Prayer of St. Methodius

Prayer of St. Methodius

Your name, O Theotokos, is full of grace and God’s blessing. You wrapped the Uncreated One, you nourished Him who sustains all. He who fills Heaven and earth, and is Lord of the universe, had need of you, for you gave a body which He had not before. Rejoice, O Mother and servant of God. Be glad and rejoice, for your debtor is He who gives life to all creatures; we are all debtors to God, and God is your debtor. Therefore, O Most Holy Mother of God, you are distinguished by greater goodness and love than all other saints, and you may approach God more closely than all others, for you are His Mother. We glorify your power and acknowledge the greatness of your goodness; we beseech you: remember us and our souls.
